WHO: Nilüfer Yanya
GENRE: soul/ alt-pop
FROM: London, UK
“The Dealer”
Nilüfer Yanya has re-upped on some new music for us, delivering a sound just as refreshing as each of her previous releases. Built atop a mélange of percussion and acoustics a more strikingly present voice emerges. The song captures a sense of longing that Nilüfer is typically unwilling to reveal in the first person, reaching far beyond the standard refrain of ‘love drunk ballads’ and ‘wistful melodies’.
WHO: Vinch
GENRE: alt-rap
FROM: London, UK
“2 Special”
Raging every step of the way–in true-punk fashion–Vinch will always be found on stage kicking the air with his feet barely touching the ground. Seldom does he leave room for a breath as each bar flows one into the next and with his pitched up rap cadence and trap snares it’s hard not to bop your head to this one.
WHO: 808charmer, 808ink
GENRE: rap
FROM: London, UK
“On 1”
The London artist 808charmer turns up the BPM and adds in some of the London crew–808ink’s signature flourishes, like the pulsing snares and tunefully pitched-up vocals. His delivery is soothing and melodic despite the seemingly monotonous tone there’s something tantalising to it all the same.
WHO: Blxst
GENRE: r&b
FROM: California, US
“Every Good Girl”
The new single shares the clarity he’s exhibited since the start of his career, a perspective aged by the environment and experiences he was raised on. Not to get things twisted, Blxst is grounded and present in his lyricism. There are no solutions here, no grand epiphany. Just an expression of his present thoughts and observations. Blxst never disappoints his fans. Every time he chooses to put music out, the detail that goes into each release is scupulous. Which leaves us wondering… Is this new visual an indication that we can expect something new from the LA-native?
WHO: Pink Siifu, lastnamedavid
GENRE: hip hop / alternative / neo-soul
FROM: Alabama, US
“Fk U Mean/ Hold You Down”
Pink Siifu deconstructs hip-hop and neo-soul, treating the genres as blank canvases for his own left-of-the-centre compositions. There is a push and pull that occurs as the pair go back to back with their unrestrained verses. While Siifu’s soungwriting gives you that perfect amount of information and detail required to form more questions than answers. It’s an alluring technique, this sense of mystery that can send one’s mind into a rabbit hole.
